PACIFIC Post-Hoc Links PPI Use to Shorter Survival with Durvalumab; New Real-World Data for T-DXd in HER2m NSCLC

A post-hoc analysis of the PACIFIC trial found that baseline proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use was associated with significantly shorter PFS and OS in patients on durvalumab for unresectable stage III NSCLC. Separately, new real-world data from the TRACER HERTras study showed an ORR of 54.8% and mPFS of 7.2 months with trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) in 168 patients with HER2-mutant NSCLC. In other news, final results from CheckMate 73L showed nivolumab-based strategies failed to improve outcomes versus the standard of care in stage III NSCLC.

Sacituzumab Govitecan Gains FDA Approval for First-Line Metastatic TNBC

The US FDA has approved sacituzumab govitecan for first-line metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), for use with or without pembrolizumab. This approval is based on findings from the ASCENT-03 and ASCENT-04 trials.

ESMO GI Highlights: KRYSTAL-10 Misses Endpoint, while Zoldonrasib Shows Promise in PDAC

Results from ESMO GI 2026 are generating discussion. The KRYSTAL-10 trial missed its primary endpoint, as adagrasib plus cetuximab missed its primary endpoint in second-line KRAS G12C mCRC. In pancreatic cancer, the GLEAM trial of zolbetixumab plus GnP was also negative. In contrast, early data for zoldonrasib plus chemotherapy in first-line KRAS G12D PDAC showed promising activity, with ORRs of 61-82%.

ARTO Trial: Adding SBRT to Standard Care Improves OS in mCRPC

Results from the ARTO trial show that adding SBRT to abiraterone and ADT improved overall survival for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Other conversations in prostate cancer include new ESTRO consensus recommendations for focal boost radiotherapy and the identification of a rare, inherited CDK12 mutation in men with aggressive disease.

MajesTEC-9: Teclistamab Outperforms Standard Regimens; CASSIOPEIA Sub-Analyses Refine Risk

In relapsed myeloma, results from the MajesTEC-9 trial showed teclistamab outperforming both PVd and Kd. Attention is also on new sub-analyses from the CASSIOPEIA trial, which include a transcriptomic profile that identified new risk categories and refined the predictive value of MRD for certain patient groups.

DLBCL: Pola-R-CHP Benefit Tied to Macrophages; AML: OPTI-AML Trial Design in Focus

In DLBCL, a new post-hoc analysis suggests the benefit of pola-R-CHP is pronounced in patients with low M1-like macrophage infiltration; the recent publication of the frontMIND trial is also drawing interest. For AML, conversations include the OPTI-AML trial design comparing venetoclax durations and the utility of the PRISM-AML model for allogeneic transplant decisions.
